Well done Gary a good post which covered most of it, but so much went on it would take pages to give all the details.
If I can get down to Clubbies tomorrow night get Tommo to bring his camera or memory card and I'll load up the pictures on the website.
Yes I had a fantastic weekend with all you guys and enjoyed every minute (except the hangover Sunday morning!!!).

Graham.
